[show]SPOILER: The characterizations and motives of the cast was developed gradually. - For example, the first season claims that Megatron merely wanted to get his hands on Energon and that he wasn't looking for Earth specifically, yet the second season reveals that he wanted to come to Earth to fulfill the commands of the original Megatron. - Terrorsaur in the first few episodes is a Starscream-like character who always wants to backstab Megatron, but this side of him gets dropped later on as Tarantulas became the "main" treacherous character. - Tarantulas himself only developed his mysterious traitor persona later on, and initially he's only characterized as an unpleasant scientist who's only concern is eating rather than having a personal agenda against the aliens. - Waspinator only became a lovable goof who always gets blown up because the writers hated him and didn't know what to do with him.

Flying tips
- Report to the boarding gate at least 1 hour before take-off for domestic flights and 2 hours before take-off for international flights.
- Verify all your necessary travel documents (passport, visa, vaccinations) ahead of time.
- It is advisable to reconfirm the time of each flight 24 hours before the scheduled take-off. You can do so either by calling our Customer Service Department at (+34)91 524 2400 or by calling the airlines and supplying your booking reference number.
- It is very expensive to fly on the weekends, so if youre looking for cheaper rates, it's generally better to fly Monday through Friday.
- If youre flying with low-cost airlines, theres usually a surcharge for suitcases. Reconsider whether you really need that much luggage.
- If you can be flexible regarding your flight date, take advantage of that. You could save a lot of money.
- Sometimes it is much cheaper to use the secondary airports.
- The airplane cabin has very low humidity, so you will need to keep yourself well-hydrated.
- If you have assigned seating, please remain seated until the boarding line has passed. No one will take your seat and you will be more relaxed.
- Choose a seat near the emergency exits or in the first row. You will have more legroom and enjoy a more comfortable flight.

METRO VANCOUVER — A 16-year-old male from Surrey has been charged in relation to two convenience store robberies earlier this month in the Guildford area.
According to Surrey RCMP, the youth is now facing two counts of robbery and one count of possession of a dangerous weapon after two convenience stores were robbed a week apart at the beginning of August.
On Aug. 1, police allege the male produced a knife and bear spray as he robbed a convenience store located in the 15100-block of 96th Avenue. Then, on Aug. 7, two males robbed a convenience store in the 10000-block of 152nd street. In the latter incident, police say no weapons were used but the two suspects used threatening language to intimidate the victim.
After opening up an investigation, police used a combination of seized video surveillance and help from the Robbery Unit to identify the 16-year-old suspect, who was arrested Aug. 13. He has since been formally charged and was released to his parents with conditions.
Police the investigation continues as they continue to identify the second male involved in the Aug. 7 incident.

Bush Calls for Sanctions on Myanmar
President Bush called on nations to support the pro-democracy protesters in Myanmar, formerly Burma. At the United Nations today, President Bush said Americans were "outraged" over human rights abuses in Myanmar.
ROBERT SIEGEL, host:
President Bush addressed the situation in Myanmar, or Burma, today at the Untied Nations General Assembly. He accused Burmese leaders of imposing a 19-year reign of fear, and he said that Americans are outraged.
President GEORGE W. BUSH: The ruling junta remains unyielding, yet the people's desire for freedom is unmistakable. This morning, I'm announcing a series of steps to help bring peaceful change to Burma. The United States will tighten economic sanctions on the leaders of the regime and their financial backers. We will impose an expanded visa ban on those responsible for the most egregious violations of human rights as well as their family members. We'll continue to support the efforts of humanitarian groups working to alleviate suffering in Burma.
SIEGEL: President Bush was speaking today at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

The ALAN Review - Kay BainesEasy as it is to dismiss the sightings of UFOs as shooting stars, group hysteria, hallucinations, or explainable natural phenomena, it is not so easy to recognize that these occurrences have been witnessed by many reliable, scientific, well-balanced persons. Scholastic's two volumes are invaluable aids in separating fact from fiction, providing objectively the history of UFOs and analyzing the attempts to unravel the mysteries. Volume 1 records the documented sightings of flying saucers from 1947 to the present, using the classification system developed by Air Force consultant J. Allen Hynek. A close encounter of the first kind was seeing a UFO; a close encounter of the second kind was seeing occupants in the UFO; a close encounter of the third kind was meeting the occupants face to face; an encounter of the fourth kind involves abduction and being taken aboard a UFO. Volume 2 examines the roles that the U.S. government, the U.S. Air Force, the Central Intelligence Agency, and other organizations and individuals have exercised in covering up Athe truth@ about UFOs. Research by Major Donald Keyhoe, Dr. H. P. Robinson, Vice Admiral Hill Koetter, Captain Edward Ruppelt, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Dr. Edward J. Condon, William Moore, and several American presidents is discussed. The numerous, mysterious occurrences affecting these scientists/contributors in conducting and analyzing their research are more bizarre than a Stephen King phantasma; some are frightening; some are outrageous! These two books outline succinctly what has transpired thus far in the study of UFOs.
Conspiracyby Daniel Cohen
In "Conspiracy", the author explores the theory of a government UFO cover up, the origin of the real Men in Black, and much more.

FIU Might Redesign Their Basketball Court to Look Like a Cheesy Beach Towel
What does your basketball program do to grab attention when its sharing a city with the NBA champs and another college basketball team that has become the surprise story of the season? Oh, you know, just float out some crazy basketball court redesigns.
NCAA rules don't explicitly say anything about court design, and schools like Boise State and Oregon State have started to get creative. Apparently FIU is going to take the idea of crazy court designs to its ultimate conclusion.
FIU basketball coach Richard Pitino tweeted out the following potential designs today.
We should note that FIU's arena, US Century Bank Arena, is about an 18.8 mile trip by road to the sands of South Beach. Pitino noted he was a "huge fan" of this design.

Lucha Loco Live!
TicketsSat., Aug. 27, 7:00pm
This one features the skyline of downtown Miami. Pitino was merely "intrigued" by this one.
These things look more like beach towels or postcards than, you know, basketball courts.
We'd say something about how potentially headache-inducing it would be to watch basketball played on this court on television, but then we remembered no one watches FIU basketball on television.
As a side note, a couple years back Jake Donahue designed some crazy Boise State-like courts for other teams. He didn't do one for FIU, but did draw up this University of Miami idea. His idea of putting palm fronds on a basketball court in Miami may actually come to pass, albeit slightly less elegantly.

Bruce Lindsay certainly was an icon of the largest amount. He presented the news and facts with great enthusiasm and integrity. I like his demure - very calm, happy and professional.

What are the average starting salaries, bonuses, benefits and travel requirements like at Trugreen?
What do you like best about working at Trugreen? Are there any great perks or special treats for employees?

The starting wage for a "Route Manager" is $11.00 per hour.
After 10-12 weeks, they put you on a "bonus plan" of 5% of what you produce 0-20% ABOVE "goal". lets say "Goal" is $800 a day. You get 5% of any dollars OVER $4000.
Figure each application is roughly $40, thats 20 houses per day just to break even. They want you to do 20-30 houses per day which includes talking to customers and filling out paperwork AND taking care of the truck.....gas, wash, re-filling chemicals, etc.
This is a bag deal, no doubt they look for the young kids who "buy the dream"....

Using quick brushes
Using quick brushes
One of the new tools in Aperture 3 that I'm very excited about are the Quick Brushes, right here. And you can also access them, if you go to any View mode down here. Now, what do these things do? These allow us to do localized adjustments. Well, before when we got to the stage of a photograph, we would often have to go to Photoshop to do this work. This allows us to stay in Aperture longer and sometimes forever without ever having to leave this application.
There are a lot of Quick Brushes, as you can see, right here. I'm going to show you a few of them. We're going to work on this image here. And I'll try to show you the various controls that come with the brushes that we are working on, and those controls also apply to the other brushes. So really, then it just becomes a matter of which adjustment do you want to make? I want to work on this shot a little bit. There are a couple of things about it I'd like to change. So, I am going to go to Full Screen mode to give us a b...

Quick GuideRosacea, Acne, Shingles: Common Adult Skin Diseases
What are the signs and symptoms of ordinary hives?
Ordinary hives flare up suddenly and usually for no specific reason. Welts appear, often in several places. They flare, itch, swell, and go away in a matter of minutes to hours, only to appear elsewhere. This sequence may go on from days to weeks. Most episodes of hives last less than six weeks. Although that cutoff point is arbitrary, cases of hives that last more than six weeks are often called "chronic."
What are the causes of ordinary hives?
As noted above, many cases of ordinary hives are "idiopathic," meaning no cause is known. Others may be triggered by viral infections. A few may be caused by medications, usually when they have been taken for the first time a few weeks before. (It is uncommon for drugs taken continuously for long periods to cause hives or other reactions.) When a medication is implicated as a cause of hives, the drug must be stopped, since testing is rarely available to confirm the cause. In most cases, drug-induced hives will go away in a few days. If a drug is stopped and the hives do not go away, this is a strong indication that the medication was not in fact the cause of the hives.
Some medications, like morphine, codeine, aspirin, and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen [Advil]), cause the body to release histamine and produce urticaria through nonallergic mechanisms.
Despite the reputation of hives being an "allergic" condition, there is often no obvious connection to any provoking substance. In this situation, random allergy testing is not usually helpful. Continue Reading

Frank Laczko Jr. - 2009-03-06
I have a problem. I installed a theme that was a POS and not intended for use with usermin.
Now that I have selected that theme in Usermin though, I can't switch back, the theme does not work right in allowing that and I can't figure out how to edit the user manually to take the users theme preference off the bad one and back to the default.
Any ideas anyone? I really don't want to have to delete/recreate the user if I can avoid it, or delete/reinstall usermin.
Is there a way I can edit the Users Usermin preferences to correct this?

Raising funds for the La Yesca hydroelectric facility, the state-owned utility received some MXP20.6bn demand from a liquid local buyside.

Aston CEO sees short-term Brexit gainFri, 01, Jul 2016
Aston Martin will see a short-term financial gain from the crash in the pound's value following the UK's decision to leave the European Union, CEO Andy Palmer said. "A weak pound obviously helps our exports in terms of profit-per-unit," Palmer told Automotive News Europe.
Aston Martin's financial losses nearly doubleMon, 27, Jun 2016
Aston Martin made a pre-tax loss of 127.9 million pounds in 2015, the fifth consecutive year the company has failed to make a profit, as the number of cars it sold fell and as it invests in expansion. Last year, the automaker reported a pre-tax loss of 71.8 million pounds.

No effect on sharpness whatsoever. It merely subtracts out black sensor noise. The real disadvantage is that it doubles the exposure black out time - thus a 20 second exposure becomes a 40 sec exposure.

The Way Ahead on Iraq? Through Syria.
Attention toward Iraq to date has largely focused on developments on the ground; on blame over how the situation deteriorated to this point; and on what steps the U.S. is taking to strengthen Baghdad's political plurality and national military capabilities.
There has been little focus on the need for a plan to address the immediate catalyst of Iraq's woes: the conflict in Syria.
The de facto U.S. policy of containing the Syrian crisis has failed. As has been evidenced by recent events–including the Syrian regime bombing Iraqi targets and Iran flying missions inside Iraq's borders–spillover from Syria threatens Iraq's security. It also threatens the stability of nearby nations. Jordan, Turkey and Lebanon are struggling under the burden of Syrian refugees; there are more than 1 million in Lebanon alone. Each is also vulnerable to the threats posed by the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, or ISIS, and other militant elements of the Syrian opposition as well as Hezbollah-backed elements of the Assad regime.
There are also threats to the United States and Europe, posed by the radicalization of fighters in Syria who may seek to conduct jihad in the West. Finally there are the ongoing risks to the Syrian people, who have been enduring an unspeakable humanitarian crisis, including barrel-bombings by the regime and summary executions by ISIS and other extremists. The United Nations reported Thursday that 10.8 million Syrians need humanitarian assistance. That's about 1 million more people than reside in North Carolina.

The American public and the Obama administration have long thought that the risks of U.S. involvement in Syria were too great for what appears to be a slim possibility of positively affecting the conflict's dynamics. Perhaps the crisis in Iraq will finally change the administration's risk-reward calculus about Syria–persuading it to invest more effort in coercing the Assad regime and its backers to the negotiating table.

The sound of the dog's distant but loud bark piqued my dog's curiosity. The bark spoke of urgency and intruders. As we continued our walk, I soon realized who the intruders were. They were firefighters hard at work clearing land of flammable dead brush. My dog picked up their scent.
These weren't your typical firefighters, though, using hoses and shovels and axes. Their firefighting tools? Their mouths.
The county has hired these furry firefighters to help clear land of dangerous, dry brush. It's cheaper than hiring crews to use lawnmowers, apparently. And way more fun to watch. Continue reading

With Sand
Expedition Impossible
Series Premiere
Mark Burnett
Eric Bach, Ryan Allen Carrillo, Akbar Gbaja-Biamila
Regular airtime: Thursdays, 9pm Eastern
US: 23 Jun 2011
Back in 1995, before Survivor launched Mark Burnett's career as a reality television super-producer, he created an insane endurance competition called Eco-Challenge. Held annually and airing until 2002, the contest consisted of teams of four trekking over several hundred miles of wildly varying terrain in remote areas of Argentina, New Zealand, Morocco, Canada, and elsewhere. From mountain climbing to white water rafting to dense jungle hikes, the Eco-Challenge had everything. The top finishers were typically supremely fit endurance racers, with years of experience under their belts, while the less experienced teams struggled just to make it to the end. Burnett didn't create the sport of adventure racing, but he did bring it to television.
I bring up Eco-Challenge because Burnett's new reality competition show, Expedition Impossible: Kingdom of Morocco, is heavily informed by it. In this show, 13 teams of three, each wearing color-coordinated clothing and carrying a team theme (the New York Firemen, the Country Boys, the Football Players), race across Morocco, hoping to collect $50,000 apiece—and new cars. In the first episode, teams must hike up a massive sand dune, ride camels across the desert, trek into the mountains, and eventually find the finish line at or after sunset. Each subsequent leg will presumably feature other grueling tests of physical endurance, but the show isn't a flat-out, non-stop race like its predecessor.
Expedition Impossible also bears the legacy of a decade's worth of reality competition shows, which means the teams have to stop in the midst of the racing to complete challenges. These challenges seem to serve two purposes. They test the teams' mental prowess and teamwork abilities in the middle of a day of hard physical racing, but more importantly, they give the less physically capable teams a shot at evening the playing field. The teams also get a break to rest at the end of each leg so that they can start up again, either together or at a staggered start, in the morning.
The teams are also different from those in Eco-Challenge. They're not strong, focused athletes, since reality TV now demands personality conflicts rather than straightforward competition. So, they include Latin Persuasion, a group of women who have spent their whole lives in New York City: they arrive in the Sahara Desert wearing all black and start arguing amongst themselves almost immediately. Equally ill-prepared, the Country Boys describe Morocco as "Just like Mississippi, but with sand." And to mess with the audience and the other teams' expectations, there's No Limits, a team featuring Erik, a blind man who's scaled high mountain peaks, including Everest, with the help of teammate Jeff. But for all his physical prowess, Erik's blindness adds a particular sort of drama to the proceedings.
Drama is key here. In the first episode, one of the Country Boys gets completely exhausted by about halfway up the big dune, immediately proving that Morocco is actually not all that much like Mississippi. The teams must rappel down 30 stories worth of mountain, which leads to at least a couple of freak-outs over the height. The football players move pretty well physically, but ride the coattails of other teams in both of the challenges, much to the consternation of the other teams.
And then we have the camels. They live up to their reputation as stubborn creatures, giving the teams fits, much to the amusement of the local camel wranglers. Eventually most teams give up trying to ride them and set off across the desert dragging their camels by ropes.
This lively premiere episode gets equal mileage from the team members and exotic locales. Burnett's veteran producers and editors know their way around casting and cutting this type of show, and they've hit upon a good formula here. The smart editing means that hours of slogging through the desert are compressed into concise storylines. By combining elements of both Eco-Challenge and The Amazing Race, Burnett has found a middle ground that is derivative yet thoroughly

Today there is no such thing as a general education classroom - virtually every class contains learners with special needs. Accommodating these children with stop-gap measures takes great effort and often ends with disappointing results. The Inclusion Classroom Problem Solver is a practical guide that helps you build a permanent, inclusive classroom structure that automatically helps diverse learners without resorting to short-term fixes - even if you have no training with special needs students.
The Inclusion Classroom Problem Solver begins with the simple premise that if children don't learn the way we teach, we must learn to teach the way they learn. Constance McGrath explains how to set up a classroom environment that supports special-needs students as well as their peers, prevents behavioral problems, and improves learning for everyone. Based on observations of more than a dozen teachers across multiple districts, The Inclusion Classroom Problem Solver provides proven ways to create a classroom that replaces frustrating temporary accommodations with an inclusive, joyous environment designed to work for every student. From the smallest tasks - such as explaining assignments, arranging children's seating, and establishing classroom transitions - to big ideas, McGrath shares:
- organizational principles and lesson plans that work together to meet student needs
- curricular supports that are efficient, effective, and give students opportunities to succeed and be appropriately challenged
- assessment techniques, including whole-class and self-assessments, as well as guidelines on creating fair testing for all students
- classroom routines that promote inclusion, a positive culture, and friendships among all students
- experience-honed advice on working through behavioral issues, including interpreting what signal a child may be sending through undesirable behavior
- ideas for building and sustaining a strong special-education team
- methods for communicating effectively with parents.
In addition, McGrath provides a summary of the most common disabilities teachers work with. This invaluable resource provides a working definition of each condition, typical symptoms that teachers and parents might see, likely parent concerns and expectations, assignments that work well with the disability, and numerous ideas for supporting students at both the individual and whole-class levels.
Inclusion is a fact of life, but you don't have to struggle with it. Read The Inclusion Classroom Problem Solver and change your perspective. You'll not only find out how to provide diverse learners with what they need by making accommodations a part of your classroom structure, but also discover a teaching life that's less stressful and more satisfying.

ANCHORAGE — North America's tallest mountain doesn't just have a new name. It also has a new elevation.
Denali, the Alaska mountain formerly known Mount McKinley, is now officially 10 feet shorter, measuring 20,310 feet at its highest point, the U.S. Geological Survey announced Wednesday.
ANCHORAGE — Residents of a Native village threatened by erosion were thankful Wednesday for President Barack Obama's attention to their plight, saying they hope his visit to Alaska will help them secure funding to build a critical evacuation road to drier ground.
Even with a protective ocean rock wall, the impoverished Inupiat Eskimo community of Kivalina has no more than a decade left before erosion begins to force people from their homes, said Millie Hawley, president of Kivalina's tribal council.
ANCHORAGE — Two of Alaska's most remote villages are getting new, larger clinics in an effort to improve health care services for residents of the island communities.
The Norton Sound Health Corp. is funding construction of the clinics at Savoonga and Gambell on Saint Lawrence Island, with $1.4 million of the $10 million construction cost in hand. The nonprofit tribal health organization has applied for several grants toward raising the remaining $8.6 million.
SITKA — Authorities in Sitka say heavy rainfall has caused them to stop searching for the body of a third man believed to be buried in landslide debris.
KTUU-TV reported that officials say they suspended search efforts around 8 p.m. Friday as weather conditions deteriorated.
The bodies of brothers Elmer and Ulises Diaz were found in the debris of logs and muck earlier this week. They were painting a new house at a construction site when the landslides struck.
Searchers were still looking for city building official William Stortz.
Authorities haven't begun clearing tons of logs and mud to search for three men believed buried by a landslide because the debris that crashed into a southeast Alaska town remained too unstable Wednesday and poses a danger.
Crews in Sitka unsuccessfully tried to stabilize the ground after part of a mountain gave way and swept tree-tangled muck into a construction site Tuesday. Workers tried using heavy equipment to divert stream water washing over the debris, which geologists were reviewing to see how responders can safely begin searching for the missing men, officials said.
ANCHORAGE — Across the Bering Strait, Robert Soolook can easily see the looming hulk of the neighboring Russian island where some of his relatives used to live before they were forced to relocate to the Soviet mainland at the start of the Cold War.
"It's always a reminder, each and every day," Soolook, an Inupiat Eskimo, says of the view from Little Diomede Island. Less than 3 miles away is Big Diomede Island, but it might as well be thousands of miles from his village, Diomede, because it is strictly off-limits, patrolled by Russian border guards.
ANCHORAGE - A landslide described by one witness as a sea of logs, mud and debris is believed to have trapped three people who were missing Tuesday from a neighborhood in the Alaska coastal town of Sitka.
City officials earlier said four people were missing.
A city building official is among those who are missing. City officials said he is 62-year-old William Stortz, who also is the city fire marshal. The Daily Sitka Sentinel first reported his identity.
ANCHORAGE — Secretary of Veterans Affairs Robert McDonald paid tribute Wednesday to those who served in the Alaska Territorial Guard during World War II.
McDonald addressed seven surviving members of the largely Native citizens militia during a ceremony in the northwest town of Kotzebue.
Representatives of the event said the veterans attending the ceremony came from Kotzebue and three Alaska Native villages.
In his brief speech, McDonald said he had met earlier with each member attending.
ANCHORAGE — A federal appeals panel has sided with the new leaders in a tribal power dispute that has stalled efforts to relocate a badly eroded village in western Alaska.
The Interior Board of Indian Appeals stepped in to review a 2013 ruling by a Bureau of Indian Affairs official that determined the sitting tribal council no longer represented the Yup'ik Eskimo community of Newtok for bureau funding purposes. The old council appealed the decision, which gave local power to a new group that claimed to be the rightfully elected council.
ANCHORAGE — A federal appeals panel is expected to announce a decision Friday in a tribal leadership dispute that has complicated efforts to relocate a badly eroded village in western Alaska.

can . How do their bosses excuse themselves? Jeff Zucker, NBC's entertainment president, told Rutenberg, "We do have a responsibility, and I do think we're a broadcaster in the broadest sense. On the other hand, we have to open our eyes and understand we have to adapt." In other words, the networks will be "responsible" in the sense that they won't go too far too fast, but they'll also "adapt," meaning they'll eventually permit it all. So they'll relax standards a bit this season, a bit more next season, and by, say, May 2006, who knows what the standards will be, or if there'll be standards worthy of the name? The pressure is on. Rutenberg reports that "CBS executives say that writers are submitting scripts ... that include every crude word imaginable, including one considered to be on the furthermost reaches of decorum (let's just say it has to do with the making of stem cells)." Where, oh, where, is the FCC? Asleep at the switch, unfortunately. "Broadcast indecency," which covers "patently offensive" treatment of "sexual or excretory organs or activities," is permitted only between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. -- in other words, it's forbidden in the first two hours of prime time, yet the FCC has said nothing about the violations to date. Interestingly, while the relevant law also bars the kind of "profane" language that Sorkin is pushing for, the section of the FCC Web site concerning obscenity -- which can never be broadcast -- and indecency doesn't discuss profanity. When I had an assistant ask the reason for the discrepancy, and what FCC policy is on the likes of "g--damn," he was given the runaround, but no answer. Memo to George W. Bush: It would take one phone call to FCC chairman Michael Powell to simply remind him, since obviously he needs reminding, that the airwaves belong to the public, not Sorkin, Bochco or NBC, and it's the FCC's job to protect the public's interest.

text: We've seen this thread in countless previous subforums and I think it will work especially well here given the wide variety of movesets available in the Dream World. Make sure to comment on some of the posts above yours. Use multi-quote and participate! I'll start it off with a gimmicky but DEADLY moveset I've been working with. I'm sure you've all faced this at least once. Durant @ Choice Scarf / Mental Herb / Lum Berry Ability: Truant EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe IVs: 0 HP / 0 Def / 0 SpD Hasty Nature (+Spe, -Def) - Entrainment - Iron Head - X-Scissor - Rock Slide / Thunder Fang Everything about this set screams "suicide". Entrainment is one of the most gimmicky moves in the game, but the ability to give your opponent's Pokemon Truant is a God-send. A reckless player will OHKO Durant outright after you so nicely grant it its new ability, allowing you to send in your Shadow Tag Chandelure and use a combination of Protect/Substitute and Calm mind, or Dugtrio with Protect and Hone Claws, to get their offenses to +6 (and accuracy in Dugtrio's case). With a Choice Scarf, Durant is faster than Deoxys-S or Base 110 or higher with their own Choice Scarf. Mental Herb can be used to block fast Taunt from Thundurus, while Lum Berry gets rid of Sleep or Paralysis that instantly hampers your strategy. The EVs and Nature are specifically crafted to make Durant die after getting hit by anything. Hasty is used to soften up Durant's too-decent Defense. This is the only EV spread you should use, or Durant might actually survive something while you lose your momentum. The other moves are there just in case you need to attack, which should be never.

Making One Movie in Two Days
Director Keeps a Diary of His 48 Hour Film Project Entry
Since its inception in 2001, the annual 48 Hour Film Project has charged hundreds of amateur filmmakers with the task of producing a complete short film — as the project's name suggests — in just two days.
Joe Bruncsak's Fuzz! team won the 2003 Washington, D.C., event with its movie Weather Man. This year, Fuzz! was in the running again.
Starting on a Friday night, the Fuzz! team, along with all other Washington entrants, had to write, shoot and edit a movie by Sunday evening at 7:30 p.m.
Contest rules provide minimal yet crucial plot guidance: each team must draw at random a main character, a line of dialogue, a prop and a genre. The Fuzz! drew S. Baxter, professional photographer; the line "You know I love the _____" ; a rubber duck; and horror.
Bruncsak's frenetic audio diary documents the Fuzz! team's weekend-long ordeal. The end result: Photo Finish, clocking in at just over 5 minutes.
The 48 Hour Film Project was founded in Washington, D.C., eventually expanding to 21 cities, including Auckland and Wellington, New Zealand, and Copenhagen, Denmark. Winners chosen for each participating city are entered into a final judging to determine the "Best 48 Hour Film of the Year."

On +972 magazine, IPCRI's Dan Goldenblatt has invited "anyone who has criticism of how we at IPCRI try to advance this goal to tell us so, engage and challenge us, and help us and others improve." As a long-time critic of the "liberal left" "peace industry" (I thank Goldenblatt himself for the latter term), I'm taking him up on his invitation, picking up from where PACBI left off. To start off, I'll wonder whether IPCRI "brought [themselves] together" with PACBI to "meet, discuss, argue, build, take apart, share and cooperate"? Or did Goldenblatt just write up his public response to PACBI's engaging and challenging critique of the organization?

The 'real agenda' of the BBC's Jane Corbin, who calls herself a 'Journalist'
by Abbas Al Lawati
On August 19, the Israeli consulate in New York tweeted: #BBC "Panorama" presents arguably the most complete & thorough account of the #Flotilla.
The documentary has not received much endorsement elsewhere. Instead there have been loud protests of bias, especially among those aboard the Mavi Marmara, the largest vessel in the Gaza-bound aid flotilla that Israeli commandos raided on May 31, killing nine activists.
Recently aired, the Panorama documentary, entitled Death in the Med, was produced by the BBC's veteran documentary maker Jane Corbin. It claims to investigate the "real agenda" of "those who call themselves peace activists".
A close analysis of the documentary reveals a troubling lack of objectivity in trying to paint the activists, headed by the Turkish relief organisation IHH, as radical Islamists bent on waging violent jihad.
An Open Letter to BBC Panorama's Jane Corbin
Aloha Jane,
As you know Panorama aired 'Death in the Med' this week. Well Jane, I have been in the media game long enough to know that moral depravity and lack of integrity are qualities that are rewarded rather than discouraged in your field of work. With such experience it is impossible for me to take commitments from someone like yourself seriously, and that is why I recorded our conversation clandestinely, a conversation in which you confirmed the agreement that was made between the BBC and myself with yourself and Alys as BBC representatives. In that agreement it was clear that I would agree to the interview if only you included the fact that we let the commandos go. Knowing that was the agreement and anticipating that I was going to confirm it once more after the interview you said;
Well its the point about we didn't kill the commandos, we had them in… that will be in there don't worry. (laughing) That's, that is important for us because obviously they would say they felt their lives were in danger, to which the corollary is, well their lives could have been in danger but we let them go. I think that's a very strong point.
So, instead of your team honouring its commitment to me, you instead aired a farcical report with multitudes of half-truths, lies, omissions and importantly, Israeli commandos who escaped rather than being set free. Let us be frank Jane, the reason for that is because it is impossible to square the whole angle that we are "terrorists" and extremists" and killers, if we let them go. It just doesn't fit. So for BBC in this case, when the facts do not work, you lie. In an attempt to justify this, the BBC has written an insulting letter in defence of your fallacious fairytale; this is due to the torrent of complaints that have resulted from Death in the Med.
These are the birth pangs of Obama's new regional order
Seumas Milne sums up well the reasons why some caution is necessary. 'The turmoil in Tehran reflects a refusal to accept Amadinejad is popular and confusion about how to respond to the US', he writes.
Also, it appears Robert Fisk can't decide from one day to another where he stands. On his first day he had declared Ahmadinejad a winner because someone told him so. Now he is claiming, based on the photocopy of a forged letter being distributed at an opposition rally, that not only did Ahmadinejad lose, he lost by a margin of 4-to-1. Imagine that! And why would a veteran journalist suspend his skepticism to clutch at such an obviously bogus piece of propaganda? (which among other things also claims that Mehdi Karroubi — a man that independent polls showed receiving 2 percent, as opposed to AN's 34 percent — won more than twice as many votes as Ahmadinejad). Look at the reasoning of this doyen of British journalism:
In a highly sophisticated society like Iran, forgery is as efficient as anywhere in the West and there are reasons for both distrusting and believing this document. But it divides the final vote between Mr Mousavi and Mr Karroubi in such a way that it would have forced a second run-off vote – scarcely something Mousavi's camp would have wanted.
So Fisk first asserts that the reasons for believing a document with such outlandish claims inconsistent with any known independent polls and the dubious manner in which it was acquired are just as good as the reasons for doubting it. He then nudges the reader toward his implicit conclusion, that the document can't be a forgery, since it does not give Mousavi outright victory. Who could argue with such impeccable deductive reasoning? This is not journalism, this is propaganda.
Here's Milne's corrective:
'They have elected a Labour government," a Savoy diner famously declared on the night of Britain's election landslide in 1945. "The country will never stand for it." From the evidence so far coming out of Iran, something similar seems to be happening on the streets of Tehran – and in the western capitals just as desperate to see the back of Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Of course the movement behind opposition candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi spreads far beyond the capital's elite, as did the supporters of Winston Churchill against Clement Attlee. In Iran, it includes large sections of the middle class, students and the secular. But a similar misreading of their own social circles for the country at large appears to have convinced the opposition's supporters that it can only have lost last Friday's election through fraud.

Christopher Hitchens used to be an intrepid muckraker of the Left. He used to be friends with the likes of Edward Said, Chomsky, Tariq Ali et al; and he used to take on people like Bill Clinton, Henry Kissinger and assorted pundits of the Right. Since 9/11 he made his peace with power, and turned the crosshairs 180 degrees to people already targets of the right's vast army of character assassins. He valiantly used perches provided by Rupert Murdoch and Conrad Blackt to assault the likes of Howard Zinn, Norman Finkelstein, Tariq Ali, Arundhati Roy, and, in the most dastardly act of his career, he attacked Edward Said when his health was in terminal decline, and again in his obituary. Last month karma caught up with him when he was turned into a punching bag by members of the SSNP in Lebanon for desecrating the memorial of a martyr from the 1982 war against Israel. This odious creature who once used to wow notoriously Anglophile American audiences with his Oxbridge accent feigning high birth (he actually comes from a rather undistinguished stock) it appears is now trying to prolong his declining career by appealing to the Jackass generation. He has event adopted its juvenile lingo, renaming his column 'Hitch-Bitch', appropriately adorned with an image of him doing a mook-on-steroids expression for the camera. At this rate I suspect we'll soon be hearing that his obesity is nothing more than an Awesum Xperiment in XTREEEEEMMME health!
This reminded me of an excellent interview with Benjamin Barber on his last book Consumed: How Markets Corrupt Children, Infantilize Adults, and Swallow Citizens Whole, where he speaks about this very phenomena.
Guardian's Man in Caracas
Gore Vidal once said of Truman Capote that his death was a good career move. I suspect that for the same reason Rory Carroll wishes deep inside that his encounter with the Mahdi Army in Iraq had also been fatal. That way, at least he would still have a reputation, since most people tend to instinctively assume the best of the departed.
This clown has been redeployed to Venezuela, and as is the wont of every tabloid hack who through whatever stroke of luck graduates to a putatively respectable publication, he appears to conflate the country with its leading demonized figure, in this case the person of Hugo Chavez. In his tortured attempts to make the Venezuelan leader appear buffoonish (no mean feat for someone who comes from a place which thrice elected Tony Blair its Grand Ayatullah), he invariably ends up making himself look ridiculous. For the past few days he has been running silly reports about how the name of a new affordable mobile phone produced indigenously may be a slang reference to a penis. I felt compelled to send him this email:
I am moved by the fact that you offer your readers some modest amusement in these hard times by making public your fascination with male genitalia . But you must take into account the possibility that some of your readers may have already entered their teens and expect that a reporter covering a country of 28 million people and nearly a million square kilometers would have more significant things to report than real or imagined penis references made by its leader. Besides, tautology is not good form; there is already a dick in the byline.

The kind of things he writes…
Michael Tomasky isn't the sharpest tool in the box. Sources tell me that the Guardian hired him because they were looking for a US commentator on the cheap, and he was all they could afford. The analysis as you can see is mediocre, and frankly quite worthless. You never get anything better than a diluted summary of the conventional wisdom in Washington, i.e., the accumulated inanity of the windbags that constitute the US punditocracy. See for example this piece on Paul Krugman's critique of Obama's economic policy. Strike that. The piece doesn't say anything about Paul Krugman's critique; this glorified gossip columnist reduces it to a personal feud. But more egregiously, see this report on Obama's handshake with Chavez. The liberal realist that he is, he ridicules the tantrums of the extremists on Fox News etc to defend Obama. He does so however on the grounds that past presidents have shaken hands with bad people too! Not content with taking cheap swipes at Hugo Chavez, he then goes on to disparage his choice of a gift for the US president. He divines Obama's inner feelings about the gift, telling us he was 'not too happy', because 'We all know who Eduardo Galeano is, and what kind of books he writes'. As a matter of fact we do: he writes Great Books. Books of the kind that the Tomasky's of the world will probably never read because they will remind them of their own inadequacies. Or perhaps simply because they are just too illiterate. That's why the Guardian got him for a discount.
Here are 'the kinds of things [Galeano] writes'.

Full of promises they just can not deliver from experience, once these guys have your money they are not interested in speaking to you about any concerns you might have. For example all your search terms dropping a few months into the contract WONDERFUL, this has destroyed our business totally. Customer service is non existant, stay well away and do your homework do not listen to their expert sales team who I must say are the most convincing I have come across, these guys will talk to you for months on end before you sign up no problem at all to them then BAM no one wants to speak to you anymore once you have signed on the dotted line!
Total waist of £3600 a lot of money for a few hours work and no link campaign!
